Why is a full Asian team competing in NA?
I would understand it if they were all born and raised in NA like Peter, but most of them aren't. The coach doesn't even speak English WTF?!?!

This post is so racist and offensive you could probably work for Riot.
Apparently, they're better than what was available on the market?
Ok
Given that there is a limit on import slots, some have to be NA residents. However, being an NA resident does not mean you speak English.
Also... a lot of coaches don't speak English. C9, who have mostly homegrown talent, has Reapered for a coach - and while his English is getting better, he's still a long way from fluent.
Because they have the right amount of NA players and Imports on their roster?
Import happens all the time, in sports and games and most other competitions.
The only time when this would not happen is when nationality is a big deal, such as Olympics or whatnot, where the nature of certain events may outright ban player imports. Otherwise importing is kind of everywhere, as if it's not a big deal then it's fair game assuming it's under the max allowance.
Not sure why you have to pick specifically on this case.

You're just jealous we stole the best European players and they couldn't win.
Two of Liquid's players are born Americans. One moved here before making it big in LOL. The other two are from Korea.
Because the US is not as racists as ignorant Europeans believe. We have citizens are every ethnicity... it's one of the things that makes us the greatest nation in the world.
